Collaborative two-day session of translation, subtitling and editing of a video that young members of Xangô recorded in October of 2017, and of selected fragments from a pedagogic guide that Xangô group created with Argentine Confederation of Public Education Workers (CTERA) during 2016. The video presents the testimonies and experiences of young Afro Argentines. The guide includes a series of activities to work at elementary and high school levels around the contributions and the history of the Afro-descendants in Argentina. The video and the guide are currently available only in Spanish.

We realize that that not everyone can attend the entire time. Feel free to attend a portion of each session or to come and go!

This activity is part of the project "Connecting Experiences, Strengthening Community Partnerships: The Afro Presence in Argentina". The project presents a series of events about Afro descendants in Argentina, taking place during Winter 2018. All the activities are possible thanks to the sponsorship of the U-M Library through the Student Mini Grant, and the support of the Language Resource Center
